Should we approve of same sex marriage?

Again, my question is why not and who are we to judge?

From my understanding of history and arts study same sex relations has been around forever. In addition, people always say that God do not make mistakes. I again go back to the interpretation of the Bible. The rewriting of the bible passed through many hands. How do we know that one of the interpreters, who had a bad experience with same sex, decided to take to out that part of the Bible? We cannot know anything for sure after man puts his hands on it.

We will judge people and put it on God. God is going to send you to hell for this or that. How do we know where God is going to send us? We know the rules of the bible, which again man minds interpret.

I know many people who are in a same sex relationship. These are good, loving, and caring people, who love their partner as much as any one else, if not more. I feel that there is not a human alive, who have not at one time or other had the thought of being with the same sex. If someone says, they have not then they are lying (is not that a sin). Rather it was a good thought or it made your stomach turn you had the thought.

So why should we judge these people, let them live as they chose and they settle with God when their turn comes? "God knows what you are going to do before you do it".

Some of these people share more love and understanding than some of us will ever know.
Most of them are cleaner than most same sex relationships. They are usually people of their word. Moreover, if they call you friend then that is what they are a true friends. Therefore, what is wrong with them being happy? Would we rather for them to have the man and woman relationship and be in misery trying to paint a picture for the rest of the world? Moreover, if this is what we are asking them to do, then again is it not wrong to want to see our neighbor live in misery? In addition, we should be ashamed to take pleasure from seeing other in misery.

Let these people be happy and marry. Let them adopt or have visitation rights to children they have already made. Let them be able to be open with the world and share the benefits of any man and woman marriage. Besides their relationship are some times healthier are stronger then most. Let them be able to insure each other, and eventually bury. Let their wills stand in a court of law and allow them to obey each other's living wills.

As old as the world is we still have not learned to live and let live. We want to read God's mind and rely our interpretation of his wishes. We still have not learned that we are not GOD!
